Julien has been battling cyber threats for over 20 years, currently serving as the Director of Information Security at Lastwall. He works with a talented team to implement security measures that keep them ready for any challenge.
With more certifications than a high-tech Swiss Army knife (OSCP, CISSP, CRISC, CRTP, and more), Julien has tackled everything from provincial governments to online casinos. He’s been a key player in building security teams from the ground up at three different companies.
As a passionate security researcher, Julien is committed to responsible disclosure and the protection of good-faith security research. He has shared his insights at various infosec events, is the founder of the Atlantic Cybersecurity Collective, a local nonprofit and sits on the advisory board of the Canadian Cybersecurity Network. Julien is also the organiser of the Policy Village here at BSides Ottawa.
And for a fun twist, the CFP suggested speakers share their favorite One Direction member, so Julien’s choice is Rick Astley, as “he’s never gonna give him up!”
